Passes fantom power with rase. Keeps mic cable out of the way with a belt clip.

I usually use a wireless system with my tenor sax. Recently, I was called for some gigs in England. I looked into bringing my systemno go; the frequencies are wrong for the UK, and I'd need a license, etc. etc. I looked into renting one over therenot worth it. So I looked into a mic preamp that I could attach to my horn. This one was recommended for my application. I purchased it and brought it over with me, along with my sax and Beta 98 on a gooseneck; it all fit in my sax case. Worked like a charm! I clipped it onto the key guard, and there it happily sat, plugged into the mic output on one end, and the XLR cable on the other. I was still tethered to a cable, but it was much freer than standing in front of a stationary mic stand. Just know that you'll require 48V phantom power; but almost all quality mixing decks have that. Thumbs up!

Do you need this preamp for the Beta 98 to work. Can you run the mic without it?
This microphones can run without the in-line preamp. However to keep a consistent impedance, and consistent output, it is recommended to use either the Shure RPM626 or any other similar Preamp. Similar to the SM7B this microphone has a very low input sensitivity. Which makes it ideal for miking loud sound sources. Having a Preamp boost the output level without raising the S/N ratio is ideal, This is why Shure recommends using this microphone with an In-line preamplifier.

question
Will this work with Shure WL93? Thx
The preamplifier for the WL93 is the Shure 90A4360. Even though the RPM626 has some characteristics similar to the 90A4360, they are not identical and so optimal performance of your WL93 cannot be guaranteed. We recommend using the 90A4360 which is optimized for use with the WL93.
